Summer isn’t a time
Moving creature south for winter
It’s a place as well.

Premium Member septembers truth

labor day heralds her arrival
she is toasty warm this year,
uneasy about relinquishing summer
school excitement has turned to disappointed sameness
in but a few days

Post Labor Day Protest

Post Labor Day non conformists unite
even if it means getting kicked off a flight
protesting with hues
still wearing on cue
ivory to cream colored ghostly whites!

On Labor Day Do Not

On Labor Day Do Not

On Labor Day do not like to labor,
Which is what I told my neighbor;
So will rest;
By God be blessed,
And listen to Trump rattle his saber.

his pained smile belies

          rivulets of quiet rage...

                    coursing through his veins

Premium Member Thanksgiving's Round the Bend

How can it be, dear
    Halloween's drawing near

  Thanksgiving then
    will be just round the bend

  Perhaps Labor Day we skipped
    or out of July fourth were gypped

  All I know is 2021's mistletoe
    is still atop our hearth all aglow

Premium Member Road Trippin'

Road-trippin' this Labor Day weekend
    with construction season in high gear
  Not much hope that the roads'll be clear

  But thinking positive may just help ~
    If not, watch out for my reviews on Yelp


        Y'all have a nice holiday now!

Alliteration Holiday

Labor day holiday is laughingly laborious
Pack a punch of partying
On one only lonely playful day
Tonight the trio sets the timepiece to 
alarm again in the am another
Work and school worry with the rules day

Premium Member Missing You, Mama

My heart was seized by grief; for days, the tears would flow.
No blow could be more shocking. My sweet Mama died
On Labor Day, September 5, two thousand five.
Precious memories of her deep love bring me a smile~~
This Labor Day, September 5 of twenty-two.

Premium Member All Day Long Seasons of Song

All day long on the boulevard
Fire escape I elude with attitude
Heat wave of summer's sting
A tepid breeze of spring 
I sing of pastels and 
Lemonade in the shade
Summer time haze and laze
Yes! Steel drum LABOR DAY PARADE
from the thick VIRGIN ISLANDS CRAZE
In my imagination

Ant Way

Where there is sugar
There are ants
During summer days
The ants store much food
During rainy days
The ants sleep and eat
In one long connected line
The ants works in unity
They labor day and night
During war and domination
The ants fight tooth and nail 
For monarchy and victory.

Labor Day

A day recalling

Past doing and achieving..

And demanding of decency..

Working and supporting

Abundance speaking..

Ideal colorings bringing

Nostalgic happiness..

Enter the pandemic

With stirrings and fear..

Yet..perhaps pointing to

Our unknown Livelihood:

Abundance unbounded...

Catechism About Catholic Math

Catechism About Catholic Math

Was reading catechism about Catholic math;
Used Holy Water  when you will take a bath;
Made mistake;
Breath did take;
Must wash off sins caused by all the wreath.

Can you imagine a pervert administering
communion serving bread and wine.

Do have a luxiorious labor day.

Labor Day Breezes

Labor day is here,
sitting outside as
the breezes gently
blow through the patio.

Blue skies for now,
so quite and still
by this afternoon showers
will be on us.

Labor day breezes
feeling so good on
this day so glad
      and free.

Loving this freedom
of wants and wishes
coming true on
this beautiful day.

Premium Member Isn'T There a Happy Holiday

~ Isn't There a Happy Holiday? ~ 

   Labor Day was born in strife
Memorial Day means widowed wife
   July Four ended a bloody revolution
MLK's death sparked violent retribution

   I'd vote for Thanksgiving
But given the country's current mood
   It seems that giving thanks
   For interracial cooperation
Is not viewed as something good

On Labor Day

On Labor Day, some stores are closed
And many catch a break
By getting paid for staying home,
No penalty at stake.

I guess it’s kind of strange
That this time off’s a welcome perk
For a day that honors workers – 
That is irony at work.

But there always are some laborers
Who never get to stop,
Which includes those gals in labor
Who are just about to pop.

Premium Member Labor Day 2003

Labor Day 2003 Written: by Tom Wright 9/1/03 Through a lovely Scotch mist morning, my thoughts spake again to me. Saying, make of this day what you will, but in it, be all that you can be. Enjoy your rose in It's unique beauty, but of It's piercing thorns beware. This day shall pass your way but once, so use it prudently, and with care.

Labor Day

He never made retirement—
palmed sallow watch.

Years bled bloodless,
stooped obliquely
in steel mills.

Mother said
he was tired—
so tired
as he drank
last days in liquid slurs.

The mill closed
after his death—
now both rustle bones,
remember russet dreams
of molten metals
faint as old billboards
whispering what once was
but never was
in rust-washed wind.
